manc_don Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Huge game this week. If I understand this new system correctly, succeed and it'll be the first time we've made Europe in what 13 years? Which given how many times we've failed will be a decent achievement for Glass in his first season. Still a huge hurdle to overcome in Qarabag, they showed they weren't to be underestimated. What is the status of McLennan's injury? I don't really know what to make of this game. I really hope we get a big crowd for it as the team seem to thrive on it. 12.5k isn't overly encouraging given we're only a couple of days out. Surely the ref can't be as bad as last weeks... Out Bed Probably awake with the boys WFH - lockdown heaven 2-1, JET, Brown. Think we'll lose on pens. No doubt brown will have the team fired up, but just can't see it.

RedKev Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 (edited) One good take is two of their players are suspended for the game. One of the midfielders that looked good and a defender I think he is. So they'll be out an influenceable player. With Consi out our defense looks worryingly weak & young! Hope there's a decent turn out to make lot's of noise and push the lads on. Think it may go to pens also.... :s Edited August 24, 2021 by RedKev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Can you imagine if we actually did it? Would be superb. The realist in me says we won't though sadly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tlg1903 Posted August 24, 2021 Share Posted August 24, 2021 Christ you fuckers are cheery today. I'm feeling confident, we are miles ahead of them in terms of match fitness and I fancy us to go through. 2-0, Gallagher and ramirez 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The street is going to know about it if it happens, that's for sure!

manc_don Posted August 25, 2021 Author Share Posted August 25, 2021 Also, our 150th European game. 15k tickets sold so far, hopefully a shift a few more than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Would you go a 3-4-1-2 with Samuels behind JET and Ramirez? We need to attack and get an early goal but if we lose a goal with only 3 at the back... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HaarDon Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 Kinda,quiet here considering it's the biggest mat h in 14 years. Now I maybe a bit pushed but come on tae fuck guys. I wanna hear about Ur formations and best team We will miss Hedges I think. He tends to open up defences. I think I'll try to catch the 2nd half but will be very hungover. Cmon Ramirez. We need your A game for this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaarDon Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I have this bad feeling I'm going to wake up and see that we lost Come on guys. Pleeeeeease win. We need wayyyy more shots on goal. Surely Allen has been practising technique with the players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madbadteacher Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 I’ll still be at work cuntos! Still, expecting a hard fought 1-0 victory and to lose a sickener in the 123rd minute as a result of having all 4 defenders injured during the game and not fit to continue. A moral victory but one that highlights our lack of a squad! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigAl Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 No beef with the starting line up but the bench demonstrates the lack of depth in our squad when we get two or three injuries. Kennedy must be so far out of the picture he would be as well applying for the vacancy in the pie kiosk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LA-Don Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 No creativity at all. Frustrating to watch. Dribble to we lose it or hit and hope. Crying out for that #10 we should have had when Christie left. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
